A Long Beach suburb with a downtown feel
Belmont Heights weaves together the architectural history of Long Beach. All homes are older but vary in size and style. In addition to preserving classic architecture, the community has preserved other old-fashioned aspects of the area. Residents enjoy local businesses, low-traffic streets and sidewalks bustling with neighbors stopping to chat with each other or on their way to run an errand. “We kind of like that it’s off the radar,” says Maureen Neely, longtime resident, former community association president, and HouStories owner. “It’s rather Mayberryish.”
Long Beach eras of construction represented in Belmont Heights
Sidewalks pass century-old homes, shaded by tall palms and dense fruit trees. Belmont Heights’ famous feral parrots help themselves to the fruit from the many fig and orange trees and rest on the eaves of Craftsman homes or Tudor turrets. “What’s appealing about Belmont Heights is that it isn’t a cookie-cutter development,” says Neely. “Each house you walk past will be different from the one next door. Because it wasn’t developed as a set development, all eras of the city are represented here.” Craftsman Bungalows are ubiquitous, ranging in price from $935,000 to $1.9 million. Spanish Revival homes are popular, spanning one-bedroom homes for under $800,000 to $3 million villas. The neighborhood encompasses two historic districts that have stood for over a century. Owners of historic homes cannot alter the outside of a historic home and can only maintain its original integrity. Building additions should be cohesive with the house's style and cannot be visible from the road. The city enforces this, using standards set by the Secretary of the Interior.
Many homes in Belmont Heights have been remodeled and additions added.

Swimming at the beach and Colorado Lagoon and visiting Recreation Park
“We don’t have big rolling lawns, so parks are important,” says Neely. The neighborhood is framed by public parks and nature. The over 200-acre Recreation Park offers visitors many activities, like the Billie Jean King Tennis Center, an 18-hole golf course, and a lawn bowling green. Below the park, Colorado Lagoon is a a wetland area with a playground, picnic tables, a sandy beach and a pier ideal for swimming on a hot day. The neighborhood stretched down to the shores of the Pacific. Long Beach City Beach is sought for its surfing, swimming and coastal views. Visitors who don’t want to get wet can lay out or explore the paved paths.

Dining and shopping accessible by foot
Belmont Heights is highly walkable, scoring an 83 out of 100 on WalkScore. This aspect entices homebuyers who want easy access to shopping and dining. “It’s a hugely walkable neighborhood,” says Neely. “We bought here because you could run down to the store and grab something or walk to meet friends at a neighborhood bar. You don’t have to get in your car to get anything.” For drivers, the neighborhood sits away from Long Beach’s highways but is framed by thoroughfares East 7th Street and Ocean Boulevard. For those traveling farther away, Long Beach Airport is a four-mile drive from the neighborhood.

It’s a great neighborhood, and you are responsible for being involved.”Neely, herself a frequent contributor, says, “We love having people write for our community newsletter. It's all locals, all volunteers.
